More About Your Income & Expenses
Because the work rules for SSI and SSDI are different, your
income may fluctuate. This table can help you plan for these changes.
Many quantities are shown here. Use the "grow" ("»") and
"shrink" ("«") icons to show and hide levels of detail. You can also show and hide whole
years.
